Cybercrime Is Bigger Than You Think It is usually about money. Cybercriminals want "free" money, and they will do anything to get to your funds. But, cybercrime is extending it's reach to virtually any crime that is committed using the internet. Even cyberbullying is considered a cybercrime to many people. It is important to realize that cybercriminals can be any average internet user you know if they don't understand what constitutes cybercrime. Cybercrime can have lifelong consequences for both the victim and the criminal. You need to know how to protect yourself from cybercrime, but also what to do if you become a victim of cybercrime yourself. |
